Forecasts

Africa's Rock (10/3), Globetonic (4/1), Flinders Range (5/1), Travel Master (5/1), Duke Of Orange (17/2), Alado's Pride (17/2), Just Power (10/1), Chariot Master (16/1), Motor City Hitman (16/1), Aspiringtoreign (18/1), Potente (22/1), Ivalo's Prince (25/1), Matsuyamo (28/1), Sultanah (33/1), Fortune Of Gold (33/1), Displace Time (66/1)

ALADO'S PRIDE just about gets the nod in this field. Chariot Master can come out best of the rest, while Globetonic merits respect also.
